The more you look at things, the more what Rod is saying about "Just need to keep doing it" looks right.
Last year, the Canes High Danger Shooting% was 18%, good for 7th in the league. But they were only 16th in the league in HD shots. And their high danger shots for% was only 50.53. So even though they had the big shot total advantage, it wasn't resulting in more high danger chances.
This year, they're 1st in HD Shots. They're 2nd in HD Shots For%. But they are only scoring on 11.72% (30th) of the shots. (6+% less than last year)
It feels like the same as last year because of shot totals and not great results, but underneath, it's not even close to the same thing.
To me, this looks like when they had a 3% PP earlier in the season, and however good or bad their powerplay was, we knew it wasn't 3% bad.
Last year, the league low HD shooting% was 13.74. The year before that, 13.21. The Canes, who were at 18% last year, and 15.2% the year before, did not magically turn into the worst HD shooting team of all time. Just like they weren't going to end up with 3% PP.
Goal scoring is coming people.
